"Why do you want to keep me with you when I'm not even your mate?" Amelie asked. "I mean... I understand that I was the one who held onto you. But you're the Alpha Prince. You can have a woman of your status by your side."

Gabriel leaned back slightly, a smirk playing on his lips. "And what exactly is my status?" he mused.

Amelie scoffed. "You're insanely rich," she pointed out. "Meanwhile, I have nothing. I have to take care of a lot of things, and..."

She stopped abruptly. She couldn't bring herself to say it—to reveal that she was pregnant.

"You can do everything from hrre," Gabriel replied. He didn't answer her important question why he wanted her to be by his side when she wasn't his mate.

Amelie gaped at him upon hearing his nonchalant response.

"I don't have a wolf. Why would the Alpha Prince want a worthless wolf like me to be by his side?" she questioned.

"Hmm. Something about you attracts me toward you. I need to know what it is. I hope that's enough to answer your question. I don't care whether you have a wolf or not. It's not like I've to send you to a battle," Gabriel mused, lowering down himself so that his face would be at her level.

Amelie pursed her lips together as her fists curled. "Your e-eyes..." she stuttered and paused.

"What about them?" Gabriel asked.

"They are pretty," Amelie replied.

"It's not a new compliment for me, but I like it," Gabriel said with a smirk. "Let's have lunch together," he pronounced.

As Gabriel turned around to walk out, he heard Amelie say,

"Thank you, Gabriel. I'll be forever grateful to you for helping me run out of that place."

Gabriel felt a weight in her words, which he was unable to decipher. What intrigued him about her was that even after knowing he was the Alpha Prince, she didn't wish to clung to him. She wished to survive on her own. So far, the casual hooks he had would only result in the attraction from the other party, not him.

However, with Amelie, his wolf and he had a completely different response. He finally walked out of the room and took out the phone from his pocket. Dialing the number to his beta, he said, "I want you to bring every detail regarding Amelie as well. Don't miss out on anything."

In the evening, Karmen arrived with all the information that Gabriel needed. As he entered the room, he saw Gabriel resting on the chaise, his right knee was in the air.

"Karmen, start speaking," Gabriel said.

He nodded and opened the tablet in his hands. "Miss Amelie is the eldest daughter of the Conley Family. She's the only one in such a strong alpha lineage with no wolf. Also, she should have been an Alpha, but she turned out to be an omega. Many say that she's cursed by the Moon Goddess to carry such a fate. The information I've gathered also said that she's been bullied and abused in the pack for a long time. Her family didn't regard her as equal as their second daughter."

Gabriel's violet eyes darkened in color to hear that. A deep frown appeared on his forehead as well.

"What about the one, who rejected Amelie?" Gabriel asked.

"It's unknown," Karmen replied. "However, there's something more important you should know. Amelie is pregnant," he revealed. "You should send her away since she is not your responsibility. She accused the Alpha of her pack for making her pregnant. Last night, they were searching for her."

"What's her pack called? And who's the Alpha of that pack?" Gabriel questioned, ignoring everything that Karmen had just revealed to him.

"Red River Pack. Alex Morgan is the Alpha. He became the Alpha in the morning and declared his Luna as well. It's Amelie's younger sister, Flora Conley," Karmen asserted.

"Send a summon to Alex Morgan," Gabriel said.

"Huh? Why?" Karmen looked confused. "Wait! Did you believe something that Amelie told you? She might be wanting to stay with you because you are the Alpha Prince. She even hid things from you, Gabriel. You should ask Amelie to leave, especially when she's carrying some wolf's pup," Karmen stated.

"Do what you are told, my beta," Gabriel pronounced, turning his head to look at him. His eyes shone, depicting he didn't like what Karmen told him.

"Yes, I will. But I want to know why you are adamant of having her. You cannot let a woman with you, who is already abandoned by her own pack, who accused the Alpha of her pack. If the word reaches the King's ears, you might get reprimanded. The Red River Pack is the one, which also helped your father in a battle that happened ten years ago." Karmen didn't want Gabriel to fall into any problem, where his father would limit more of his rights.

"Amelie didn't say a word to me. However, I trust her. I knew she was pregnant. Do you think I failed to catch that?" Gabriel arched his eyebrow.

Karmen was shocked to learn that. "Still, you decided to—"

"Yes. My wolf responds to her. I have not caught a mate's scent from her yet, but I feel strange about her." Gabriel tucked his hands inside the pockets of his trousers. "I think she's the one for me and I want to pursue her, Karmen."

He simply stared at Gabriel in disbelief before chuckling and nodding. "Alright. Then, do what you want. But you need to do something about her pregnancy too."

"I'll take care of her. She and her unborn baby are under my protection now. I want you to ask Skye Moore to come in the morning," Gabriel stated.

Karmen realized that the Alpha Prince wanted Amelie. Somehow, his attraction toward her was strong. He didn't oppose it anymore. He had been looking for his mate for twelve long years. It might be possible that Amelie was the one.

Just then, they heard a knock on the door.

"Can I come in, Gabriel?" Amelie asked.

Karmen opened the door and told Gabriel he would leave.

"I didn't know your beta was here," Amelie said, stepping inside. "I—I am sorry for stepping in without waiting for your response."

"Do you have to tell me something, Amelie, that I don't know?" Gabriel's piercing gaze locked with hers, waiting for the truth to come out of her mouth.
